We are so excited to announce that we are now carrying original artwork curated by premiere internet gallery Zatista. Thanks so much to Zatista Founder and CEO, Pete Borowsky, for helping us get to know what Zatista is all about today.

Hi Pete! What inspired you to start Zatista?

When moving into our first house with my wife, we wanted to find some great original art to fill the walls. We were ready to take a step beyond the framed Ansel Adams poster, and were looking for art that was unique and said something about our style. However, when we set out to actually find something in our budget, it was both a confusing and dissapointing process. Zatista is my answer to the daunting world of collecting art.

To you, what is the importance of providing original pieces?

Art as a part of your home and life is so unique. There are so many talented artists, creating amazing one-of-a-kind works, that you are sure to find something that speaks to you on a personal level. And the amazing thing is that when you find that work and add it to your collection you will be the only person on the planet with that unique work. In a world of big box stores and mass produced products art remains unique … and for the same price as a print you might get at pottery barn, why not own an original?

Do you remember the first original piece of original artwork that you ever bought for yourself?

The first work I bought was a little watercolor when my wife and I were on vacation in Venice. It’s just a small work hanging in our bathroom, but it’s a daily reminder of that trip which we love.

How does Zatista help artists?

Artists are the creative power behind Zatista and their work is what makes what we have to offer so vibrant and diverse. For that, we work hard to bring exposure to their art all over the world. As an artist it can sometimes be difficult to reach beyond your local community and we help with that. At the end of the day, we work to connect artists and art collectors for the benefit of both.

What types of styles and media do Zatista have to offer?

At Zatista, you’ll find a full range of artwork including oils, acrylics, mixed-media, and drawings. We’ve got everything from contemporary abstract works to fine art, and even photography (only in signed, limited editions of 99 or less). You’ll find both small and large scale works so it’s easy to find the perfect work to fit the space you’re looking for.

I am amazed at the selection Zatista has to offer, as well as the affordable prices for original art. Every piece we’ve shown above is linked to where you can buy it, as they last.
